LASER CARDS FOR HP 4000 TWINAX AND COAX PRINTERS
connected to a system using SNA protocol and be operating as a Logical Unit
Type 1.
An SCS TRN sequence begins with a one-byte binary count immediately
following the TRN code. The count indicates the number of bytes, not including
the count byte, of transparent data to follow. Up to 256 bytes of transparent data
can be sent in each sequence.
SCS TRN data is user-defined and is not scanned for SCS control codes.
However, to emulate the characteristics of the IBM 3287, non-printable characters
(i.e., control characters) are converted to hyphens. Data is translated to ASCII
with undefined characters printed as hyphens. The Laser Card offers a
configurable option to emulate the IBM 3287 or to pass the data without
translation. Refer to command 45, SCS TRN translate, on in Section 9.2 for
information.

11.4 Other Printer Commands

Commands can also be entered into the document to allow control of host
formatting commands. These commands are:
¬I Ignores all host formatting commands
¬S Acknowledges all host formatting commands
Use the ¬I and ¬S commands to remove unwanted host commands from a print
file. For example, placing a ¬I at the end of a line (before a carriage-return and
line-feed command) and ¬S at the beginning of the next line, causes the interface
to remove the host carriage-return and line-feed commands and send only the data
to the printer.
